I'm looking for volunteers to help me test out a tcl script that will remove HMO/MRV keys from MFS to solve this problem. You need no special skills, just to have Tivowebplus installed. PM me if you're interested.

Just to let you know, when installing crond onto a system without /busybox, it moves it first, then discovers it exists, so renames it to crond.bak

Suggestion: change responses to "y" instead of yes (or accept both)... people are more likely to make mistakes when entering "yes"

All in all, nice job, keep up the good work (just don't post this on DDB, their opinions about automation are well known)

Good suggestions, BTUx9. I fixed the crond issue, and I'll use "y" instead of "yes" in the next version.

I haven't tested it, but most of it should work fine as long as your Tivo already has an rc.sysinit.author file. I would skip the parts that load channel logos and replace your splash screen. I think the graphic format of the splash screen might be different for S1 Tivos. You could try it, and if it doesn't work, just restore the backup splash screen AlmostThere.png.bak to AlmostThere.png. You can probably do this over telnet, but at a worst case you'll have to pull your drive to do it. I'm curious if this works, let me know...

I incorporated a new tcl script into the main enhancements script that will search for and remove MRV/HMO expiration certificates from MFS. If you received your 6.2 image from a Tivo download and then hacked it using the Gunnyman guide, you most likely got theses certificates, which will stop MRV/HMO from working 180 days after the download occurred. If you've already run the enhancements script, then use the attached cert-remover.tcl script. FTP it your Tivo and run it with the command:

Code:

tivosh cert-remover.tcl

If you plan to run the enhancements script, it will prompt you to run the cert-remover automatically. Thanks to willardcpa for identifying this issue here, and to acii for helping me test the script!

edit: If you're unsure if you have the certificates or not, the script will let you know. Or you could search for them using TWP.

Thanks Paw, but it looks like a missing TWP archive is the culprit this time. The problem is that your running the wrong script. You have to run tweak.sh, not start.sh. The tweak.sh script untars the rbautch-files archive (where start.sh is), puts everyting in the right places, and launches start.sh. Do not untar the rbautch-files.tgz archive yourself.

To fix this, just delete TWP 1.0, and any files you may have untarred. The only files you should be starting with are tweak.sh and rbautch-files.tgz. You may want to download version 2.0, which removes MRV/HMO expiration certificates from MFS.

The crond module will make it so I can still order pay-per-view? With the phone line attached?
Has anyone verified this? I'd hate to have to pull the drive again... don't get me worng, the hack was relatively fast but my wife gets scarred when the tivo shell is on the kitchen counter.

The crond installation will make sure your unit never makes a regular call to Tivo, which would be bad. The ppv call is a seperate call to DirecTV, which is ok. I haven't tested this myself because I don't have a phone line. Why don't you try it out and report back? Just keep monitoring your system information screen to make sure the "Last Successful" and "Next Scheduled" calls keep getting updated.

I'm helping out on the future Tivowebplus 1.2.1 release also, which will finally integrate a few of the most useful modules.

OK.
I'll guinea pig this tonight.

When you go into settings->phone->connect to DVR Service... is that calling D* or Tivo. Since it says DVR service, I would think thats tivo... is there a way to force call D* ?

In regards to the "almost there" splash screen, where do you put a new one to install instead of yours (don't get me wrong, I like yours but I like to play )

Connect to DVR Service is Tivo. Not sure how to force a call to DirecTV other than ordering a PPV. the splash screen is located in /tvbin/AlmostThere.png. Be sure to heed my warnings in post 21 before you try to replace it. I posted my source graphics on the download site to use as a base for new splash screens. Be sure to post your new splash screen here so we all can share!

OK,
I have the script installed and am waiting to reboot. My wife is watching the news so it'll be a few. Maybe all night. But I'll let you know about the connect to DVR stuff since she bought a PPV 2 days ago without a phone line...

Hmm. I've always thought with a hacked DTiVo the best way to order PPV's was over the internet or calling a CST at DTV (yet there's a surcharge for the latter, I think.)

I leave my DTiVo's phone line unplugged.

Totally true. But my wife forgot that I hacked the Tivo and told her that she shouldn't buy PPV on a whim...

What really gets me about PPV is that we have 875 DVDs... She could have found something to watch!

As for the hack and see what connects. I installed the script, no sweat. Now I am just waiting for the Tivo to call D*. I hope it will have by the time I get home. It hadn't when I went to bed last night.

Quick question from a newb, what's the best way to install version 2.0? Uninstall previous version or install over previous (1.4 I think)?

Thanks

Uninstall the old, then reinstall the new.
